Police & Fire Report

SELLING DRUGS: A Battle Creek man, 22, was arrested on a charge of possession with intent to deliver marijuana after he was found near Calhoun and College streets about 7 a.m. Friday. Battle Creek police said an officer found the man talking to students who were loitering in the area. He told the officer he didn't attend school but was walking with his girlfriend. When the officer, who was investigating possible drug sales, asked if he had anything illegal the man said no. He then said if the officer had been a female he would allow a search of his person, but since the officer was male, he wouldn't. The officer then determined the man had an arrest warrant and so he was handcuffed. Police then found the man had eight baggies of marijuana inside a fake soft drink can as well as some other marijuana and a set of scales. He was arrested and taken to the county jail.
